A Few Questions

hi guys,
i have two questions regarding my 2002 c4 cab. first i've been smelling a syrup-like smell driving it lately, any ideas what this could be? my last trip to dealer was last feb and they advised i was starting to get the rms leak (is there any relation?)

also, i parked in a garage in nyc and noticed that the left tailight was cracked slightly, which company has the best deals on parts and is this something that i can replace myself? i am not very handy with cars

thanks in advance!

try http://www.departstop.com/SPECIALS_Pg2.htm

got mine from them ~$450 for the pair (euro type - sans amber).

took them about 4 weeks to get though. for the savings it was worth the wait.

it is DIY.....very easy.

good luck

'sweet' smell is often coolant. Check the reservoir tank for leaks.
